Objective: The objective of this study was to determine whether glenoid morphology correlates with anterosuperior labral variation. Methods: Eighty-eight direct shoulder magnetic resonance arthrograms were retrospectively reviewed. Sagittal oblique images assessed for the presence or absence concavity. Evaluation axial performed, separately classifying labrum into 1 4 categories: no variation, diminutive labrum, sublabral foramen, Buford complex. Results: In 88 shoulders, there 13 notched...
We measured radiation doses to the eye and thyroid during diagnostic cerebral angiography assess effectiveness of bismuth lead shields at dose reduction. Phantom head angiographic studies were performed with (study 1) 2). In study 1 (12 phantoms), thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) placed over eyes in three groups: (i) no (four phantoms); (ii) anterior phantoms) (iii) posterior phantoms). a second (eight only TLD measurements obtained two shielding A standard 4-vessel angiogram was on each...
Various methods were attempted to reduce the incidence of phrenic nerve palsy during interscalene brachial plexus block. Mechanism was presumed be due spread local anaesthetic anterior scalene muscle. We hypothesised that by injecting saline in this anatomical location prior performing an block might palsy.This a double-blinded randomised controlled study performed single-centre, university-teaching hospital. A total 36 patients either group C (conventional group) or S (saline group)....
Colonic lipomas are a benign tumor that can present in multiple ways, including; incidentally, abdominal pain, change bowel habit, bleeding, intestinal obstruction and intussusception. We the case of 48-year-old gentlemen who presented to emergency department with 3 day history pain was found have 5 cm intramural ischemic pedunculated colonic lipoma causing intussusception large obstruction. He received initial management laparoscopic exploration, reduction intussusception, colotomy...
Spinal pathology commonly features in physiotherapy caseloads and a detailed knowledge of the Cauda Equina Syndrome (CES) is essential. While CES rare presentation, if missed consequences permanent bladder, bowel sexual dysfunction are devastating. has varied prese ntation terms chronology symptomatology, leading to difficulty accurate diagnosis clinical setting. The case study 48 year old female who developed while attending presented. Her subjective physical examination findings together...
Abstract Background Delirium is an acute confusional state, frequently associated with older hospitalised patients and has been found to be related several adverse outcomes including longer length of stay mortality. Better baseline cognition linked a lower risk delirium however those high may experience greater cognitive decline post delirium. Methods We undertook retrospective study 92 who attended the Frailty service in Emergency Department between 01/01/2023 31/01/2023. screened for using...
Abstract Background Delirium is a common clinical syndrome in older patients attending the emergency department and its incidence increases with patient age, disease severity baseline cognitive impairment. However delirium frequently unrecognised departments. The 4AT simple short detection tool designed for easy effective use. Early proactive recognition of ED may improve outcomes such as length stay discharge to own home. Methods We undertook retrospective study 92 who attended Frailty...
